Aren't juniors' sizes cheaper too? Thin privilege!

Clothes aren't made for "normal" people, they are made to the average... so small fats. They just don't want to admit that they are that big. Talk about denial!

This is so true for any store that's not specifically for thin people. It's like everything is cut to fit like a trash bag.

Thin people actually have a much smaller selection of well fitting clothes than fatties do, it's just that fatties like to complain that they don't look as good in their fat clothes as we do in regular fitting clothes.

The clothing stores in my area definitely cater to hams. I can't find a fucking pair of pants that fit me correctly. If I find a pair that is my waist size then the legs are too damn short. If I go by my inseam, then the waist is too big! I swear, they're encouraging people to gain weight. It pisses me off.

Anyone bitching about privilege for any reason is a cunt who pins personal inadequacy on other people's actions.

Bingo, it's all about escaping personal accountability and responsibility, laying blame on everyone else for their shortcomings.

It's like, imagine you're playing poker with your friends, and you've been dealt a really shitty hand. Are you going to whine about it, and say it's their fault that your hand is shitty, and demand that they change the fucking rules of the game in your favor, just for the sake of "equality"? And if you are, what kind of friend would you be? Would your friends want to play with you often if you behaved like that?

Made an account just to share my experience at Marshall's (supposedly fancier version of Winners in Canada).

Despite being only 130lb at 5'6", I have big boobs and a long torso so I haven't fit into a small shirt since I was like eleven. Blouses are a special treat to buy, but any shirt needs to cover the cleavage, especially for work. I've always generally worn a large or even extra large, depending on the brand.

I was at Marshall's getting a new gym bag and randomly spot a couple cute tops with higher necklines. Both were mediums, but they were on sale so I tried them on. One was a little baggy but it was casual anyway so I get both. They ring up, and both are Juniors.

I also made a stop at Mark's looking for a pair of pants and maybe a blouse. Apparently now I am an extra small at Mark's. The world has gone mad.

At this point, buying from Urban Outfitters and Uniqulo is my main option with all the vanity sizing.You're right though, it's much worse in the U.S.

Shit, I'm not a "skinny" person by any definition (generally wore a size 4 or 6 before the Fattening) and I'm starting to have trouble finding jeans. I thought since I've been hitting the weights (used to be purely a runner) for a couple months this might improve things, but my legs have actually gotten slimmer and still no ass. I apparently suck at bulking. I half heartedly looked at Walmart the other day and the plus size section was bigger than the human section. Oddly enough I've found the most tights and leggings that fit me at the Dollar Store. Probably because it's all from China.

Good luck with your tri training! I'm thinking of putting my dumb ass through a marathon for the first time this year because I hate both myself and gainz.

Oh more Canadians eh. Yeah we are there now, even for men's clothes. As a kid I was a medium, now I'm a small or extra small (tested by digging up old shirts). I can also fit into 28 "inch" slacks, since they are actually 30.

I'm a guy, but I have a similar problem with a 50" chest. In crazy world this only makes me a large, I've even fit into a few mediums, and of course the shirts are all cut to either go straight down or to slightly bell out at the waist, so I either have to tuck them into my pants or have a lot of loose cloth flapping around my waist. It's just, wtf, I should be about the biggest size most places carry and I'm maybe the median.

I feel ya. Some day when I make Big Kid Money I want to get at least a couple dress shirts tailored. Trying to tuck in that big bunch of bottom fabric into pants sucks.

I can never seem to find human sizes for cheap. Our local Beetusmart has a ton of clothes. But even the ones in "my size" are cut for ham shapes.

I suppose it doesn't help that I have some actual curves. I am between a pear and hourglass body shape. So things tend to not fit right around my waist. It's like designers expect us all to have a hanging fupa.

Add being short on top of that, and there's...just nothing. I gave up and started making my own stuff, except for jeans. Luckys fit somehow.

Btw, why the hell are shirts so freaking lomg now? Even extra smalls come halfway down my thighs. I may be short, but I'm not THAT short.

Remember that shaming fats with your body alone is the best kind of feeling.

A while ago I was at a party talking to an acquaintance who is fat. She mentioned that she hates shopping for clothes because "They label it as a large when its actually, like, an extra small". Ya right, its the opposite.
